Alcoholism Support Group

Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.

Insane thinking or what?

Im glad my memory is slowing starting to come back as I recall a few years back when I mentioned to someone in A.A that I really wanted to drink and he just looked at me and smiled then said,'Don't drink even if your ass falls off!!! Well in the next few days I was really wishing it would, of course theres no chance it could of but my thinking was,I hope it does! I ended up drinking anyway and the excuse was I didn't get my way? Insane alright.

Alcoholic thinking anyway.We need to justify our drinking to others because????It sounds good to us.Alcoholic thinking can be changed.It does take practice though. The easiest way to change your thinking is to change your actions.Look forward to new ways of changing your life, Read an inspiritual book instead of waching T.V. Go to a meeting and be the first one to reach out to a new comer.Things you normaly wouldn't do.You'll find that changing the things you do directly affect the way you think.If you're busy working with others the less you think about yourself.That gives God a chance to get past that wall that we build so high.He wants to work in our lives.we just need to let him.

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...

Today is my 25th birthday, to my somewhat lack of surprise I can see already no one really seems to care. I've always been the kinda person to make sure that everyone I Care about feels appreciated and knew somebody had their back. I can count 4 times this year when I Went out of my way to make sure a "friend" felt good on their birthday, especially if they got left hanging. Its early in the...
